, To all whom it may concern:

Be ll? known that I, Josnrrr CHMIELINsKI,

a citizen of the United States, residing at Passaic, in the county of Passaic and State of New Jersey, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Fountain- Brushes; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as Wlll enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same;

This invention relates to brushes and the .primary object of the invention is to provide an improved brush in which a quantity of material to be applied to a surface is carried by the brush so as to obviate the necessity of dipping the same into a recep-' tacle containing the material.

Another object of the invention is to provide an improved fountain brush in which the parts thereof are so arranged, with relation to each other, that the brush can be readily. disassembled whereby the various parts can be, cleaned.

A still further object of the invention is to provide an improved fountain brush of the above character, which is durable and efficient in use, one that is simple and easy to manufacture, and one that can be placed upon the market at a reasonable cost.

lVith these and other objects in view, the

invention consists in the novel construction, arrangement and formation of parts, as will be hereinafter more specifically described, claimed and illustrated in the accompanymg drawings, forming a part thereof, in

which:

Figure 1 is a longitudinal vertical section through a brush constructed in accordance with this invention.

Fig. 2 is a horizontal section taken on the line 22 of'Fig. l.

Referring to the drawings, in detail, wherein similar reference characters designate corresponding parts throughout the several views, the numeral 1 generally indicates the brush which includes a tubular body 2 graduallytapered toward the upper end thereof,- which is provided with external screw threads 3 on which is fitted a removable cap 4;, which forms means whereby the liquid may be placed in the same.

The lower or flared end of the body 2 is provided with internal screw threads 5 in quickly and thoroughly threading the brush that the brush can be readily removed so that the same can be'easily cleaned, or an other brush substituted therefor when the Ol'lglllal onejhas becomeworn or whena differentcolored paint is "to be used.

A butterfly valve 10 is provided for 0011- trolling the flow of'liquid from the hollow body 2 to the funnel member 7 and thus to the'brush ihebutterfiy valve 10 is provided at opposlte diametrical points with-inwardly extending threaded apertures 11, in.

the pins can be readily removed from the with a thumb piece 13, whereby the valve By threading the" I it can be seen that? valve and thus allow the same'to be re--v moved, so as .to allow the valve to be cleaned and scraped and the, tubular body.

The funnel-shaped member 7 is provided with a downwardly. extending annular flange 14, which is adapted torest upon the brush head 5' and forms'means for holding the funnel-shaped member in correct posiadoption of my device willnecessarily vary,

I desire to emphasize that various minor changes in details of construction, proportion and arrangement of parts maybe -resorted to, when required without sacrificing any of the advantages of my invention as set forth. 7

' NVhat I claim as new is: r I

A fountain brush comprising a hollow, body having each end open, a brush thread-I ed in one end of said body, a funnel shaped member disposed in the body and having its neck portion positionedin the brush, an

annular supporting flange formed on the enlarged endvof the funnel shaped member and resting on the brush and against the ed to control liquid thereto, and a remov- 10 able closure for the other end of said body. In testimony whereof I aflix my signature in presence of two Witnesses.
